Right-clicking on the grid brings up a popup menu. This menu contains several items which allow you to modify the currently selected cells, in a variety of ways. For example, you can insert lighting effects, cut, copy, and paste (both effects and timings), and delete or resize timings.

This item on the right-click context menu will toggle the effects in the currently selected cell or cells between on and off. Any that had been off will be turned on; all others will be turned off (note that this includes not just those that had been on, but also, for example, those that had been shimmers or fades).

Note that this does not turn on foreground effects mode permanently; it merely enables it for this one insertion.

Select Row(s)

This item on the right-click context menu changes the selection so that any rows that are in the selection become completely selected. That is, the selection will stay on the same row or rows, but from time zero to the end of the track.

Select Column(s)

This item on the right-click context menu changes the selection so that any column or columns that are in the selection become completely selected. That is, the selection will stay on the same time range, but from the first channel to the last.

This item on the right-click context menu can be used to insert a timing into the sequence. It opens a dialog asking you for the time that you want to insert a timing at (defaulting to the time that you right-clicked when opening the context menu). Please see Time Format for details on how to enter times.

This item on the right-click context menu can be used to delete the timing closest on the left to the time that you right-clicked when opening the context menu.

Delete Selected Timings

This item on the right-click context menu can be used to delete the timings inside the currently selected cells. Note that the two timings on the edges of the currently selected cells are not deleted.

Resize Timings to ...

This item on the right-click context menu can be used to change the duration of time between the selected timings. It will not allow any of the timings to be pushed beyond the next timing in the sequence. Please see Time Format for details on how to enter times.

Note that the length of the sequence will not be affected, nor the positions of the timings past the selected range. So, if you choose to resize some timings such that their total length decreases, this will cause the cell just past them to increase in size (since the last selected timing is moved earlier, while the next timing remains the same).

Resize Timings to Equal Times

This item on the right-click context menu can be used to change the duration of time between the selected timings so that all such durations are equal (or as close to equal as possible). For example, if you select two cells with durations of 0.2 seconds and 0.8 seconds, and use "Resize Timings to Equal Times", they will both change to 0.5 seconds.
